Bernie is a Bladefrums member with lots of great knowledge to share in the axe subforum, sadly he doesn't know how to post pictures and refuses to learn. Definitely a great guy.
I thought that I read he passed a few years ago. I could only imagine that he's a huge wealth of knowledge. It would be neat to get him on a podcast. What I read said he was born in 1922 I think, going to have to double check what I read.
@@old_iron_axe_and_tool Yeah I don't think he's 103 going on 102. He's not exactly an everyday forum poster because of the picture situation, but he does post often enough. He is definitely a knowledgeable guy and there's no substitute for his experience or first hand practical knowledge, it's just a shame about the picture posting situation.
@@TylerSnyder305I just saw some of his personal axe collection that had sold was posted on worth point. To bad he's not a picture guy. But I guess all of his contributions to documentary videos make up for it. I'm not on blade forums but I think I'll check it out to read his posts.
@@old_iron_axe_and_tool That's kind of a big part. He's pretty much said all he had / needed to in the documentary, and everything else is being said by those he inspired to get interested in axes. He's mostly just commenting in threads and not really started much of his own discussions or anything, but it's just good to know he's still ticking and still loving axes.
гарна робота,гарна сокира...хотілося б такою попрацювати,але в наявності лише старі радянські сокири,по своєму добрі,але такої "вдачі" як у даблбіт у них явно немає...
This is awesome. I love to watch the guy on WQED a Woodrights shop it's all hand tools, the guy is always knocking shit over and misplacing his tools it's just like real life in my shop.
Who is making quality files now? Has Nicholson gotten the hardening corrected? After the move to Mexico their files were soft. The last files I nought were just before that.
Little late on the video but when he said throw the rag away plz do not throw it away before covering it in water for awhile. The person that runs aplanelife seen his neighbors trash can on fire because of it. Also my storage room had a small fire the very first time i used it lol
